Magicks, beings with magic in their blood, have walked the earth from time immemorial. They call themselves the Chosen – the ones selected from the human population to be gifted with powers that set them apart. Torn by rifts and feuds, they hold one commandment sacred above all – Thou shallst not reveal the secret of your existence to the humans. This is their Supreme Edict; enforced strictly by Chosen leaders under penalty of death. They’ve kept their existence a secret for centuries by hiding their powers to blend in with the human population and by adhering strictly to the Supreme Edict. But with the advent of rapid technological advancements, the Chosen fear that it’s only a matter of time before humans discover their existence. To stave off the discovery by fostering better communication and greater co-operation between the various Chosen factions, a new body for collaboration comes into being. Four representatives sit on this Council of Chosen (CoC), one from each major faction of Chosen, to represent the interests of their brethren. The CoC is a step in the right direction, but centuries of mistrust and isolation are hard to banish in one day.

The story is set twenty-five years after the formation of the CoC, although it was set in motion during a time of great turmoil in the Chosen world when the idea of the CoC was being first debated.

The Prophecy, Book One in Saga of the Chosen series, will be the first book to be published. It’s a tale of fantasy, mystery and adventure with a dose of romance sprinkled in, with an urban setting. Set mostly in contemporary San Francisco in the underground and parallel world of Chosen, it introduces Tasia  Armstrong, a very powerful Magick who hides dangerous secrets and possesses powers that make her unique, even amongst her gifted brethren. Circumstances force Tasia to graduate from a nondescript life along the fringes of Chosen society to a central role in an investigation to decode a mysterious plot from the distant past that seems to threaten her people. Along the way, she makes new friends while struggling to cohabit with the local Shape-shifter Pack, especially the formidable and tough Alpha who leads it. Caught up in a world alien to her, Tasia has to figure out the rules quickly even as danger seems to stalk ever closer to her.

This is a tale set in a world of Magicks with different kinds of powers. There are Wizards, Wyrs (were-people who are also known as Shape-shifters since they can shift into their beast forms), Vampires and Ancients (those with the oldest magic who call themselves as the First Ones).
